Somebody tell the Chinese companies to stop dumping AI, so US labs can keep burning pension funds money wrapped in VC checks fine dumping AI at a huge loss. In any case I find the dumping argument stupid: they are giving both the model weig

I don't understand how do you think that would work and who would pay the bill.

What's next? Full blown communism? In any case, bad idea if other retaliate with their exports. Also, US cannot really use the oil it produces, because it can refine very little of it. Any export ban would require massive investments.

You're missing a key part: energy prices in US go up too. It doesn't matter if US and its colonies are net producers.

Oil is sold globally. It doesn't matter if in Texas wells are producing it at a penny for barrel, if the global prices are high that oil is going to be sold to Philippinos, Japanese, Italians or South Africans. So, at the same time, it

As an European, trust me, Trump has little to do with it. We've been doing fine championing our nationalism instead of creating a strong internal market. Because Hungarians decide in Hungary and Spaniards in Spain doing business across

You're naive if you're thinking the scumbags running the US companies aren't using your data. In any case old rules apply: if privacy is a concern don't share the data. I share all my work-related code because it's

I've occasionally got chinese characters in anthropic/openai's responses too, locally on codex/claude. Hasn't happened in a while, last time was when I was testing fable 5 in june.

What do you mean? In any case mathematics is humanity's oldest open source project going on for millenia, it never belonged to a single country, institution or class.

If model X fits your need, you don't need to upgrade. I have released applications on Gemini 3.5 flash that make real money and I don't see any particular reason to upgrade.

This is not a nit. This is a real problem in the technology. It assumes the average and plausible answer token by token. And this tendency shows in every single field it's applied to. At the end of the day I want *correct* answers, to

I think this whole distillation argument is between fully overblown and bogus. In any case, highly misunderstood.

You highly underestimate how both Claude and OpenAI have peanuts of the enterprise marketshare compared to Copilot and Gemini. I see it first had across all my non-tech friends: their companies already used Teams/Sharepoint or Google S

No, that's your opinion not backed by any science. As I posted you a comprehensive review of carnivore diet literature there's no evidence of any long term benefit, in fact, there's evidence of the contrary. You really sound
